    If you said it was more like competitive TF2 than certainly. But I think most people experience with TF2 is drop in servers with anywhere from a 32 to a 64 person population where you just run around killing things and do objectives and just generally enjoy the destructive mayhem. This feels...

    Symmetra's teleporter can really break an offense too if you get it set up. Instant teleports back to the defence point is invaluable.

    D.Va is good when you start to learn to use her E more. Its like a mini short term Reinhardt shield. You got a push coming? Hit E, stop all incoming fire and hopefully your teammates are safe behind your shield shooting. Roadhog hook you and blow his ult? No problem. Eat the whole thing...

    Overwatch

    To build on my own post and what some others have said, I think this game is balanced around competitive, organized play. And, without that a couple of the maps seem to naturally favor the defender. Simply because an unorganized defense is easier than an unorganized offence. If you had an...

    Overwatch

    I am still having problems with this being a MOBA moreso than a shooter. As Fawe said earlier, the game is more about team comps, working together. Ult timings etc. And, while in an organized team I think that would be great and do good things for a competitive style play, for pubs it makes...

    DOTA 2

    I generally don't play ranked, but the new ranked queue has gotten some of my friends to drag me into games to 'reset their MMR', and it has been horribly painful. Having heard all them bitch about how the MMR Trench is inescapable, I get the feeling they are right where they belong. Finally...

    DOTA 2

    So on the questline paths. If you don't get a 3 star success, can you go back later and redo it to get a 3 star after you've completed later steps? Cause I'd like to finish the questline to guarantee the skin first, then work on getting the 'special' version of it later.

    I wonder how well the selling skins will go. They really need to get their art crew kicking out some better looking ones, cause nothing I saw really wow'd me. Also, with games like Dota and League you're looking at your hero constantly. In OW, I never really see my hero other than the final...

    I've been trying to put my finger on what it is that bugs me about this game. I'm having fun, but it seems frustrating and I think this about sums up what it is. Its that feeling I get in Dota where I have to pick a character I don't really feel like playing because no one else wants to roll...

    The best one I saw was a ridiculous set up for 1 Reinhardt, 1 Junkrat, and the rest Pharahs. Shat on just about all the Turret/Bastion nonsense. Course, you'd need people to communicate to do it.
  13. Mao

    Overwatch

    So. You had an organized team that was communicating. Which, we've all already said a team communicating and working together would really negate a lot of Bastion's bullshit. Also it was three of them? And from what I've seen three of anything really isn't a good idea in this game. So I...

    Guess I should be happy I didn't face the pre nerf version then. It seems interesting to me, as people have pointed out, that they seem to be balancing for competitive play as opposed to normal people. I enjoy the game but I don't know if it quite has the appeal of organized competition vs say...

    Overwatch

    The problem is its not a lone Bastion. And I agree. Junkrat, Pharah etc are good. But a Bastion that sets up a good bit behind his team can be a problem. Especially in unorganized pubs. In group play I don't think Bastion would be half the issue he is in random pubs. There you can...

    Overwatch

    So far, this game is really just making me miss TF2. Others have said it here, but the fact that its a teamwork game over being able to make solo plays I think is going to hurt it some. I was really excited about a new update to a TF2 style game that I could pop in and play some rounds during...

    Was skimming a book by Mises recently and this is one of the things he pointed out about why everyone hates meritocracy and capitalism. It removes the excuses people have for failing. In aristocracies or caste systems etc, you are born to your station. Its not your fault. You can rise within...

    Can someone explain to me what was going on with EG's second draft against Liquid? I generally like EG, but sometimes I think ppd takes all the 'I'm a drafting genius' shit too much to heart and outthinks himself into shit drafts. It looked like they let liquid have the exact drafts EG used...

    They've said they intend to bring back buying in game money with NCCoins or whatever, but were going to wait awhile for the economy to stabilize before implementing it. So... its coming, supposedly. I have faith that NCSoft will put it in, cause there is no way their greedy souls are going to...

    So, people have figured out you can change it to loot master right as you are killing / killed the final boss. Trolls/ninjas are changing that shit to loot master and setting rolls to heroic and bogarting all the dungeon drops now. Like I said. Some things about this game are great. Others...

    I was having a problem with my Razer mouse constantly 'reinstalling'. But the latest patch to Synapse whatever seemed to fix it. (So far. Prolly crash again when I need it, since it seems to time with big fights) Also. This game is so good in so many ways, and so pure shit in others its...

    Blade and Soul - Kung Fu Korea - Action MMO

    Eh. So far i kinda like the loot system. Instead of just getting screwed by RNGesus i feel like i got the courtesy of a reach around by getting some cash out of it. Eventually you hope you get enough cash to win the bid. Later as the game progresses it might get worse when money bags can...

    Ghost in the Shell: First Assault. GitS + Counter Strike?

    http://firstassault.nexon.net/en/about So this popped up on my Steam feed yesterday. Apparently they are releasing an FPS loosely set in the Ghost in the Shell IP. Its listed as Free to Play, but its being distributed by Nexon so I expect a metric fucktonne of microtransactions...

    TF2 came in the orange box with I think Half Life, Portal, and TF2. So yeah, it cost something, but it was a pretty good steal considering the price and what was in it. And also once you bought it there was nothing that was locked behind a paywall. The worry I have isn't that they are going...

    Microtransactions are a given. Just are they going to be cosmetics, pretty princess dress up stuff or are they going to have key game play stuff like heroes and maps locked behind paywalls?
  31. Mao

    Overwatch

    The reason most of us are really sketchy over the box price is this looks like they might be setting up to do a box price and then throw all the microtransactions on top of it as well. Yeah, you get the starting hero set but then everything after that you have to pay for on top of box costs...

    You might want to research this one a bit more. The IDF has 2 women combat units, but they are not truly integrated as you'd think by the news. There are two units that allow women that are combat units. The Caracals and the Lions of Jordan. They are relegated to guarding Egyptian and...
